Rome in Canada: The Ultramontane Struggle for Supremacy Over the Civil Authority by Charles Lindsey is a historical account of the conflict between the Roman Catholic Church and the Canadian government in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book explores the rise of ultramontanism, a conservative movement within the Catholic Church that emphasized the authority of the Pope and the hierarchy of the Church over secular institutions. Lindsey examines the ways in which ultramontanism influenced the Catholic Church in Canada, and how it clashed with the liberal, secular values of the Canadian government. The book covers key events such as the Manitoba Schools Question, in which the government attempted to secularize education and the Catholic Church fought back, and the Quebec Bishops' Declaration of 1917, which asserted the Church's right to intervene in political affairs. Using primary sources such as letters, diaries, and government documents, Lindsey provides a detailed analysis of the complex relationship between the Church and the state in Canada during this period. He also explores the role of key figures such as Archbishop Ignace Bourget and Bishop Lionel Groulx in shaping the Church's response to secularization. Overall, Rome in Canada offers a fascinating insight into the struggle for power between two powerful institutions, and sheds light on the tensions between religion and politics in Canadian history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
